Vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) in vascular inflammatory diseases
Vasa. 2022 Oct 6. doi: 10.1024/0301-1526/a001031. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACT Vascular adhesion protein-1 (VAP-1) also known as amino oxidase copper containing 3 (AOC3) is a pro-inflammatory and versatile molecule with adhesive and enzymatic properties. VAP-1 is a primary amine oxidase belonging to the semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) family, which catalyzes the oxidation of primary amines leading to the production of ammonium, formaldehyde, methylglyoxal, and hydrogen peroxide. VAP-1 is mainly expressed by endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, adipocytes and pericytes. It is involved in a repertoire of bi...

Chemotherapy-Induced Arrhythmias
Abstract: Cardio-oncology is a subspeciality within cardiology that has developed primarily as a consequence of the cardiovascular implications of cancer and its therapeutics. Arrhythmias are increasingly recognized as an adverse feature of many chemotherapeutic agents. This relationship is poorly defined and studied in the literature compared with other side effects of chemotherapy. In this review, we appraise the published literature on arrhythmogenic consequences of chemotherapeutic agents and summarize the available evidence. Atrial fibrillation (AF) and other supraventricular tachycardias are frequently observed i...

Chronic Oxidative Stress as a Marker of Long-term Radiation-Induced Cardiovascular Outcomes in Breast Cancer
We examined associations of biomarkers of oxidative stress (myeloperoxidase, growth differentiation factor-15, 8-hydroxy-2 ′-deoxyguanosine [8-OH-dG], placental growth factor), cardiac injury (troponin I, cystatin-C), inflammation (interleukin-6, C-reactive protein), and myocardial fibrosis (transforming growth factor-ß) with long-term RICVD in breast cancer (BC) survivors. We conducted a nested case–control study within the Women’s Health Initiative of postmenopausal women with incident BC stages I–III, who received radiation and had pre- and post-BC diagnosis serum samples. Cases (n = 55) were defined as dev...

Contemporary demographics, diagnostics and outcomes in non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis
Conclusions NBTE was more prevalent in females and embolic complications were the most frequent clinical finding. Overall, patients with NBTE had a poor prognosis, particularly in those with lung cancer or metastatic tumours. Further studies in patients with NBTE are needed given its morbidity and mortality.

A review on the role of MEG8 lncRNA in human disorders
Cancer Cell Int. 2022 Sep 16;22(1):285. doi: 10.1186/s12935-022-02705-9.ABSTRACTMaternally expressed 8 (MEG8) is a long non-coding RNA which is expressed in the nucleus. It is highly expressed in adrenal, placenta and brain. Recent studies have shown contribution of MEG8 in different disorders ranging from neoplastic ones to diabetic nephropathy, atherosclerosis, ischemic stroke, trophoblast dysfunction and abortion, Henoch-Schonlein purpura and osteoarthritis. It has an oncogenic role in the development of lung, pancreatic and liver cancer. In the current review, we summarize the role of this lncRNA in mentioned disorders...

Efficacy and Safety of Omega-3 Fatty Acids in the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
ConclusionModerate evidence showed that the use of omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular death. Compared to other types of omega-3 fatty acids supplements, we support the use of prescription EPA ethyl ester formulations for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, but the potential risk of atrial fibrillation and bleeding cannot be ignored. It is important to note that omega-3 fatty acids should be applied with caution in patients with previous myocardial infarction, which may increase the risk of stroke. Finally, omega-3 fatty acids are relativel...

Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Characterizes Silent Cardiovascular Abnormalities in Asymptomatic Pediatric Cancer Survivors
We examined CPET data via cycle ergometer in asymptomatic PCS with normal echocardiogram and age-matched controls. Peak and submaximal parameters were analyzed. Fifty-three PCS and 60 controls were studied. Peak oxygen consumption (VO2), peak work rate (WR), and ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT) were significantly lower in PCS than controls (1.86  ± 0.53 vs. 2.23 ± 0.61 L/min, 125 ± 45 vs. 154 ± 46 W, and 1.20 ± 0.35 vs. 1.42 ± 0.43 L/min, respectively; allp <  0.01), whereas peak heart rate (HR) and ventilatory efficiency (a slope of minute ventilation over CO2 production or ∆VE...

Passive smoking may be associated with bleeding of cerebral arteriovenous malformation in non-smoking women: a retrospective analysis
CONCLUSION: Passive smoking may increase the risk of AVM bleeding in non-smoking women. This increased risk may be related to the inflammatory response, vascular wall damage, hemodynamic disorders, changes in atherosclerosis and changes in gene expression caused by passive smoking.PMID:35946710 | DOI:10.1590/0004-282X-ANP-2021-0216

Association of Physical Activity with Aortic Disease in Japanese Men and Women: The Japan Collaborative Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: Greater time spent in sports participation was associated with a reduced risk of mortality from aortic aneurism in the Japanese population. Further studies are needed to investigate the relationship between physical activity and aortic dissection.PMID:35793980 | DOI:10.5551/jat.63416
